Turning an APPE into a job/offer?

I am a P3 starting my rotations in a few months. I just found out that I was accepted for a rotation at the FDA in the fall, which is my dream job!

Besides brushing up on my clinical/ stats knowledge before the rotation, is there any way I can prepare? I really want to make an impression on my preceptor so that I can hopefully get a job there after graduation.

I dont have any industry experience ( Ive only ever worked in retail), so I get this might not be easy. Even if they would like me to do a fellowship first, I wouldnt mind as long as I knew there was a job waiting for me once I get out.

Any tips?

Work hard and apply for their fellowship programs. That said there is certainly no guarantee of job post fellowship, especially in the fun government funding world of late.
